Long abstract	Following the discussion in Chapter three on the potentially transformative role of legal and planning instruments in the reimagining and subsequent construction of a democratic society, this chapter focuses on Johannesburg as a unit of analysis, in an attempt to ascertain the extent to which these legal and planning instruments have contributed to the promotion of sociospatial justice and urban governance. In many ways, post-1994 Johannesburg is a microcosm of post-apartheid society because although it is a site of multiple forms of transformation it is also a site of continuities.
